In our very special Easter 2020 message, we declare with gusto and authority that "Jesus is alive!" Indeed, Jesus died, was buried, and rose again on the third day. Yes, Jesus is alive even today!

In other words, Paul states that if you say there is no future resurrection of believers then you are simultaneously saying that there was no past resurrection of Jesus. And if Jesus didn’t rise from the dead, well, what does that mean for us today?! That’s what this message is all about…
